Italian kitchen, Southampton waterfront

Ennios sits opposite the Red Funnel terminal, in a Victorian warehouse on the old city walls. Our head chef runs a daily-changing kitchen: pasta rolled the same morning, lamb that has been in the oven since opening, and an Italian wine list that takes a minute to get through.

The kitchen changes with the season and the catch. First-class antipasti, hand-rolled pasta, slow-braised meats, and a short list of grilled mains. The wine list is unapologetically Italian and worth lingering over.

AA Rosette in 2026 for culinary excellence. Five black stars from the AA Hospitality awards for the boutique stay above. The kind of quiet recognition that comes from consistent work rather than a launch campaign.
